they help clean the air that you breath in thru your nose. if you've noticed, people that breath in thru there mouth normally have yellower teeth. the hairs catch bacteria and other air polutints that your body doesn't want you to breath.
Some people think nose hairs block the large air particles while the mucus captures tinier air particles including tiny microbes like bacteria and viruses. But judging by the ability of microbes to infect people through the air, the theory seems weak. Still there is the possibility that the theory could be right.
When nose hairs are plucked or pulled out, it can cause pain because the hair follicles in the nose are connected to nerve endings, which are sensitive to touch and can trigger a pain response when disturbed.
It helps keep out foreign bodies.
Most breathing in healthy humans occurs through the nose. As air enters the nasal cavity, it is filtered of large debris by hairs lining the inside of the nose, and then further filtered through the nasal conchae, an area of folded, moist tissues; this also warms the air to near body temperature when it is cold.
it was called as " Nasal Hair " but usually called as " Nose Hair "
Yo nose hairs get burnt and fallz out!
No. There are only hairs inside of the nose, which serve to clean the air that you inhale - breathing through your nose is better for you because the air is cleaned - dirt is trapped in the mucous and hair in your nose. If you breathe through your mouth, there is very little to clean the air.

The nose is protected by cilia. Cilia are the tiny nose hairs that are found inside the nose. The cilia catch dirt and particles to prevent them from entering the nose.
They're there to help trap dust particles - to stop them going into the lungs.

Nasal hairs
The hairs and the mucus inside the nose trap and collect dust, bugs and other debris and prevent it from entering the lungs.
can plucking nose hairs cuse sinusitis?
Nostrils are mainly what the human race breathes out of, but, other than that purpose, they also help protect it by: Having hairs: the hairs on the inside of your nose (Yes, everybody has them) trap foreign materials. Mucus: the mucus on the inside of your nose also traps foreign materials. This is also why we get allergies. Foreign materials enter and the body's response is to create mucus along the nostrils to protect your respiratory tract further.
The tiny hairs in your nose are called "cillia". The function of cillia is to keep insects, dust and other foreign particles from being breathed into your lungs and sinuses. They serve as an air filter. The mucus in your nose serves much the same purpose and lets you blow out the particles caught by the cilia.
No, nose hairs start growing at the top of the nose and work it's way down. When you pluck nose hair you only take out 1/3 of the actual length.
